THE Olympic will be hosted on Thursday (31/08) by Chukaritskyin the rematch of Piraeus’ 3-1 victory in the first match for the Europa League playoffs and the Diego Martinez he mentioned at the press conference of the match in the preparation of his team and not only.
The Spaniard emphasized that “the DNA of Olympiakos is always to play for victory”while reminding how “we have changed 13 players, we are a new team”.
Analytically:
“It’s not our job to think about the opponent’s performance. Fortunately, in the first match we countered the positive elements of Czukaritski. We had prepared quite well. Tomorrow is a different scene. An away game. The team has all the ambition and motivation to succeed and to be just 90 minutes away from the first big goal. We have prepared our match for the good evidence that the opponent will show.
The past is the past. The history of the club is important but the DNA of Olympiakos is always to play for victory. It is a new project that we want to do everything for our victories in all matches. There is a lot of willingness. We have changed 13 players. We are a new team. We will focus on today and what we can do with this jersey. We are full of expectations and dreams and we want to honor the Olympiakos shirt.
I respect all opinions but I think Olympiacos played quite well in the 90 minutes of the first match. I think the worst part of our game was extra time. That’s where we lost control. Čukarički knows how to press, like any Serbian team. We deserved the result. Tomorrow’s game will be different. It won’t be easy but we are confident. To be more efficient and better.
We are on the right track and I think we are proving that we are improving. We show progress and let’s not always play well. We know that the opponent will give everything and we want to be stable, with personality, improved in defense, attack and static phases. May the team progress. The main thing is to get the qualification because it is one of the main goals of the season”.
